Looks as if all these men left home to join Co. "C" of the 20th Georgia Partisan Ranger Battalion when it organized in May 1862. The battalion was dissolved in the summer of 1864, three of its companies joining seven from the 62nd Georgia Mounted to form the 8th Georgia Cavalry Regiment.

All the service files you need are with the 20th Georgia Partisan Ranger Battalion and 8th Georgia Cavalry Regiment. Any of them can be ordered through the message board link seen on this page.

There are no records for any of these men with the 62nd Georgia Mounted Regiment.

You mentioned the 9th Regiment. Which one did you have in mind?
